Bill overview
This bill, the SAVE for Seniors Act, aims to ensure that seniors have access to COVID-19 vaccines without any out-of-pocket costs. It amends the CARES Act to specifically require that COVID-19 vaccines authorized for emergency use by the Food and Drug Administration be covered under Medicare without cost-sharing. This change would apply retroactively, meaning it would cover vaccines received before the bill’s enactment. The goal is to remove financial barriers to vaccination for older adults.
